The Nature Conservacy

The Nature Conservancy protected lands in Hawai`i as early as 1960 and has had a physical presence here since 1980. TNC has helped protect almost 200,000 acres of natural lands in Hawai`i, including establishing a statewide system of eleven preserves totaling almost 32,000 acres.

Communications Director Grady Timmons, explained TNC’s strategy: “We began by establishing preserves to provide habitat for threatened native species. Today, we are taking that a step further by protecting the larger native ecosystems of which preserves are a part. Our reputation for excellence, gained through more than quarter century of preserve management, is now being applied across larger landscapes.”
